[QUOTE="Star*, post: 435730, member: 4964"] My Father had a cure for things like this. When we left the house? Anything that we were told NOT to wear? He took and threw it away. I had the most beautiful purple top with thin spaghetti straps that had satin and t shirt material that laced up the front. It was soooooo pretty that I went back to Kmart and bought it in white. They were not modest. You could see through the satin, but I was 15 and didn't care. I had a lifetime of oppression. I wore them UNDER my tshirts. Well - apparently Mom told Dad or Dad saw them -or somedangthing.....and one day I came home and voila.....all gone. And you could tell that my closet had been meticulously been gone through. Thus ensued the "YOU HAD NO RIGHT" and came back to me - "I have every right - as long as you are living under MY roof, it's MY rules and I won't have my daughter dressing like a harlot. ABSOLUTELY the END of this conversation." And it was too - I wore dresses until the 11th grade, never cut my hair, still to this day have no piercings, and have never dyed or highlighted my hair, and while I CAN dress how I like - I still dress modestly. I can remember standing in front of the screen door with my dresses AND slips on to see if you could see sunlight through them. And to see what young women think is appropriate to wear out - and even older women? yeah - well - I will NEVER EVER like Madonna for that or listen to any of her hypocritical hype - she turned a generation of women into bra wearing floozies and then told her own daughter she can't watch television. What a jerk. She made her millions on the backs of a generation that went right in the toilet trying to be just like her. I'm so glad my Dad said - NOoooooot my kid. no snow cones for bras here. And as far as I'm concerned? That was a battle that I wouldn't conceeded to with Dude either - No pants on the ground in our house either. Or around your knees, or buttocks, or anywhere but up around your waist. UGH. And definitely not walking around in underware. [/QUOTE]
